Is money the key to our happiness? This is what is widely believed to be true. After all, the basis of modern day economics assumes that increased wealth promotes peoples’ wellbeing. Why then, in the current climate of wealth and prosperity, do more and more people fall prey to stress, burnout, depression, alcoholism, divorce, or even suicide? Why do millions of children, young people and families feel increasingly bad by the day?
Nars also studies the secret that women seem to hold, the one that tips the happiness scales in their favour. Money and Happiness looks for answers to many puzzling and interesting questions and reveals the real keys to true happiness – fully supported by genuine and up-to-date research.
